DEATH AND RESURRECTION IN Edward Albee's Three Tall Women

The purpose of the present research is to trace and explore typical Absurdist elements in Edward Albee's Three Tall Women, in particular obsession with death and emptiness of existence. In the play, Albee portrays human frailty and mortality quite unsentimentally. The tall women of the play lay bare the truths of our lives – how we live, how we love, what we settle down for and how we die. The researchers aim to analysesuch notions and motifs as preoccupation with death, death-wish, decay, and nothingness as well as their psychological effects in light of existentialistic perspectives. Furthermore, the familiar existential themes of anxiety, nihilism, philosophical pessimism, and absurdity are explored and traced in the play. The article shows that the characters eventually overcome the despair and frustration caused by death and the realisation of its reality and resurrect by embracing life with all its pains, horrors, and setbacks.
